I'm mostly a metalhead, liking all kinds of metal. But I also like groups such as The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, and other groups that fall under the classic rock genre. I also like much older styles such as Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and others like those two.

want to beat Iowa more than any other team? I'm just curious. Personally I'd rather beat any B12 team on our schedule before Iowa. I'll admit that it hasn't always been that way but it has for some time.
No, but a win is a positive no matter the team.
I'd rather we beat them all....or at least Nebraska...and Texas...and Oklahoma....and Mizzou...Oh heck..let's just beat them all.
In my heart I'd rather beat Iowa. In reality conference wins will do us more good.
I'd take a Big XII road win over Iowa any day.
I believe it is WAY more important to win any B12 game, but personally I enjoy the pleasure of an ISU win over Iowa over any of B12 victories. Only because of the fans that are so annoying the rest of the year.
Really...you'd rather beat Colorado than Iowa? How about Kansas State? You get made fun of for 12 months by 12 year olds and idiot Wildcat fans all over town if we lose to Kansas State? Somehow I doubt it..Iowa is the biggest win on the schedule for about 2 million reasons and this game should be treated as such. It's a must win. Maybe not every single year but if this program is to move forward we have to beat Iowa on a consistant manner. We could lose to Oklahoma State every year for the next 15 and it wouldn't come close to destroying our program like losing to Iowa 15 years in a row would.
Yes. Doing well in the conference is great. But the conferences is not "one team". Id enjoy beating iowa more than id enjoy beating any individual team on our big 12 schedule this year, except OSU. OSU would be huge.
Of course everyone would rather beat a big 12 team. Fortunately, we don't have to choose one.
The most important game is the next one. Last week it was NDSU, this week it's iowa, next week it will be Kent State.
Cliche says I want to beat whoever is next on the schedule.... To answer what you're getting at ... Probably whichever team is more prominent at the time. If I could trade a win against iowa for a win versus Texas or OU, I would. My opinion of a season isn't made or broke on a win/loss against iowa. (Winning makes the season more tollerable from a fan standpoint.....)
I want to beat everyone. Every game must be a victory....that is how I feel. However....since the OP has asked the question...for this year......I would rather have a VICTORY over Nebby on the road more than a W against EIU at home for sure. Other years might be different.....but it has been like forever since we have won in Lincoln.
The thing that comes with beating Iowa is satisfaction knowing how the hawk fans feel after you beat them. It's considered a rivalry for many reasons. Winning rivalries are huge to the team, the fanbase and detrimental to the losers of that game. Having said that, I'd rather beat Nebraska, OU, Texas, etc... any year
I find this whole discussion disingenuous. Like Cyclone fans like to play down the game because their hawk buddies seem to think we all think it's our "super bowl" so lets all just say we'd rather beat Kansas. Right. This is not to say Big 12 wins are not huge. At this point every win is huge but stop pretending the Iowa game is not the biggest game on the schedule. It is. For both teams.

Contact precautions for Clostridium dif.cile and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)
Prieto, Jacqui and MacLeod Clark, Jill (2005) Contact precautions for Clostridium dif.cile and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Journal of Research in Nursing, 10, (5), 511-526. (doi:10.1177/136140960501000508).

This paper presents an overview of the key findings, key issues and implications emerging from a single case study designed to explore a group of nurses' and healthcare assistants' infection control practice, and to introduce interventions aimed at implementing best practice. The study was undertaken on one hospital ward and the sample comprised all permanently employed nurses and healthcare assistants (n=18). Guidelines on Contract Precautions were developed and informed by an expert panel of infection control nurses (n=100) from across the UK. The detailed investigation of individual participant's responses to the intervention during its implementation provided unique insights into the factors which influence nurses' and healthcare assistants' decisionmaking in relation to infection control practice. Analyses of the data from all three phases of the study revealed that participants experienced great difficulty comprehending infection control recommendations and varied in the extent to which they adopted them. Their capacity to understand and implement these recommendations was hampered, not only by a lack of knowledge, but also by irrational beliefs, inaccurate perceptions of risk, both in relation to themselves and patients, and a lack of ability or willingness to exercise clinical judgement, particularly in relation to glove use. These findings highlight the need for further study in the drive to improve this crucial aspect of health care services.

As the Gunflint Trail lakes warm up, fishing is changing a bit. The lake trout have moved into 40-50 feet of water and are biting on crank baits. Nice sized walleyes are still coming in. Teresa Baumann at Golden Eagle Lodge had one of the Sacharski brothers from the Chicago area catch a 9lb 2oz walleye on a blue rapala. Walleyes have also been biting well on spinners with crawlers in about 15-18 feet of water. Adam Treeful guiding out of Gunflint Lodge took a 19-year old guest to North Lake yesterday. They caught 15 large walleyes. Meanwhile on Northern Light Lake the Osbourne familly (Orlando, FL) has been fishing with Dennis Todd for a couple days. Dad Tom caught a 28 1/2" walleye, son Duncan got a 30" walleye and Mom Debbie caught a 32 1/2" walleye. They also got lots of smaller walleyes. Most were caught on jigs. Mary Jane Pratt (Edina, MN) and her daughter Karen were out on Saganaga with Jon Schei yesterday. They caught 25 lake trout up to 8 lbs in size. Throughout the week the bass have continued to bite well. Shari Baker of Gunflint Pines says that her guests have been casting for them with artificial lures.
Lynn Pauloski from Clearwater Lodge reports that the dragon flies have hatched. Aside from being beautiful to watch, they eat mosquitoes. That is enough to make them welcome every summer.
Animals sightings continue to come in. Perhaps the most interesting are the wolves. Debbie Mark from Seagull Outfitters says that her guests have seen wolves between Seagull Lake and Round Lake. They have also seen a wolf on the Moose Pond Road. Jon Schei has also seen wolves between Seagull and Round Lakes. It is unusual to see any wolves during the summer, let alone this many.
The biggest sightings of the week have been the explosion of wildflowers brought on by the warmer temperatures. The latest list features blue bead lily, prickly wild rose, bunchberries, lupine and lady slippers. One of my neighbors on the Trail has 24 lady slipper blooming in her yard. Even though lupine are technically considered an "invasive, non-native plant," they are still striking to see in bloom. Down along Poplar Lake and on the South Gunflint Lake road are two prime places to see them. Soon the blue flag iris will be in bloom. The best place to see them is in a pond just south of Trail Center. You can see it from the road but watch for other cars. Nancy Seaton of Hungry Jack Outfitters tells me that the frogs in that pond have been especially noisy at night lately.
Planning ahead a couple weeks, it is nice to see the tiny wild strawberry plants loaded with berries. Picking them is an on-your-knees job requiring lots of patience. Only A list people get my wild strawberry jam.
That's it from the Gunflint Trail for today.
The Gunflint Trail welcomed Jim Klobuchar's 35th annual bike ride this week. The trip started with some days on the North Shore. Then it was time for the long ride up the Trail. They journeyed up to Gunflint Lodge, Gunflint Northwoods Outfitters and Gunflint Pines for two nights. All 183 people enjoyed a "duff" day exploring the lakes of the Trail. Most decided on activities other than biking for this one day. It was a great group to visit us.
Fishing didn't stop while the bikers were here. Mike Berg of Seagull Fishing Camp reports that cooler weather earlier in the week didn't stop his guests from having good luck. Bob Alton (Fort Pierce, FL), Chuck Rexroat (Sycamore, IL) and several friends limited out with eater-sized walleyes and released a few big ones. The week warmed up and Dave Becker (St. Paul, MN) and Bob Invie (St. Louis Park, MN) had good luck fishing on both Saganaga and Northern Light Lakes. The bigger walleyes kept on biting but the eaters slowed down a bit. Minnows and leeches worked best. Down at the mid-Trail area, Forrest Parsons of Hungry Jack Lodge said that Todd Peterson (Edina, MN) caught a beautiful 30", 10 lb. walleye. And of course, the smallmouth bass are still providing plenty of action on the spawning beds.
The Becoming A Boundary Waters Family seminars are educating even the local residents. At Poplar Creek Bed and Breakfast, Barbara Young said Ellen from the Tofte U. S. Forest Service station gave a talk on birds of this area. One of Ellen's interesting points related to birding generally in the area. The American Bird Conservancy rates the Superior National Forest as one of 100 globally important bird areas. This is because of our sparse population and acres of uninhabited land throughout the forest. Those of us who live here tend to take our variety of birds for granted but the outside world thinks this area offers some superb birding opportunities.
This column could be filled with reports of animal sightings. In the last years the frequency of sightings has been on the rise. Many feel that the explanation lies in the Blowdown of 1999, the Cavity Lake Fire of 2006 and the Ham Lake Fire of 2007. These three events have lead to many acres of new growth in the forest adjacent to the Gunflint Trail. The young forest offers much more sunshine and feed for animals. So we look forward to an increase in sightings.
At this time of year, the forest young are making their first appearances. Luana Brandt of Nor'Wester Lodge says one of her employees was driving to work when a partridge family crossed the road. The young were just "puffballs" of feathers. Our favorite fox, Gimpy at Moosehorn Bed and Breakfast, brought one of his kits to visit owner, Paula Beattie. Mark Darling at Way of the Wilderness Outfitters had a visit from a repeat guest. It was a turtle who buries her eggs each year right in front of his main building. She did it again this year. As you visit the Gunflint Trail look carefully to see which animals you can observe.
Up and down the Gunflint Trail, I am hearing reports that the smallmouth bass are on the spawning beds. Most fishermen are using surface lures such as poppers. Pound for pound, smallmouth bass have more fight in them than most other fish. If you have a young fisherman in your family, this is the perfect way to get them hooked on fishing. Every fish they hook feels like a lunker.
In addition the walleyes and lake trout continue to bite. Bob Baker at Gunflint Pines says that walleyes on Saganaga have been doing well on leeches and crawlers. He also said that lake trout on North Lake have been biting on stick baits. Luana Brandt at Nor'Wester Lodge reports that fishing is great for walleyes and lake trout at secret spots. Apparently her staff has really gotten into fishing. The guys fix up all the rods and lures and give them to the girls who catch all the fish. Remember too that as our waters warm up the lake trout are going into deeper water. They like about 50 degree tempeatures and follow the cooler water down as the top waters warm up.
Sue Ahrendt from Tuscarora Lodge reminded me that a series of seminars will be going on all over the Gunflint Trail this summer. Basically they revolve around a new program of the Gunflint Trail outfitters called Becoming A Boundary Waters Family. The outfitters have even put out a book by this name that is packed with practical information on taking your family on a canoe trip. Considering the authors of the book, this is expert advice. You can also get information about this program on their website, www.becomingaboundarywatersfamily.com
It seems like there has been an explosion in the moose population all along the Gunflint Trail. For the past weeks I have been regularly reporting moose sightings. Usually the number os sightings starts to slow down as there are more tourists on the Trail. For some reason, people are still seeing lots and lots of moose. Ted Young at Poplar Creek Bed and Breakfast reported about guests who were hung up by a moose on Horseshoe Lake just where it narrows on the way to Vista Lake. After an hour they crept along the furtherest shoreline to get around the moose.
Luana Brandt has also reported that the blueberry bushes are full of white blossoms. Now it is down to the correct mixture of a little rain and a little sunshine for a great crop. Luana's mother-in-law, Alis, used to be the #1 blueberry picker on the Trail. Those berries were then turned into to awesome blueberry pies. Luana learned the pie-making area very well from Alis. So long about the last week of July start checking your favorite secret spots for blueberries.
Everyone on the Gunflint Trail reports an increase in fishing success. In spite of windy days and cool temperatures, the walleyes are moving out of the spawning areas. They are still pretty scattered but people are catching some nice sized fish and some eaters. Lake trout are also biting again and even the bass are feeding. The bass, however, are not up on the spawning beds yet. That will be another week or so.
On Saganaga Lake Mike Berg from Seagull Creek Fishing Camp had out Robie Wayne (Minnetonka, MN). They caught and released a 30 1/2", 20 1/2" and 28" walleye plus an 18" smallmouth bass. Smaller walleyes were caught for shore lunch. Ken Peters (White Bear Lake, MN) released a 28 1/2" walleye. Guide Curtis Blake had out Henry Withers (Savage, MN) and Martin Berskow (Bloomington, MN) on both Seagull and Saganaga Lakes. In addition to walleyes ranging from 24-27 inches, they had fish for dinner and fish to take home.
On Gunflint Lake Jon Schei took out the Wildenauer Party (Woodbury,MN). They caught 5 northern, some bass and a lake trout. It was all done during a little morning fishing. Above is their catch of northern. The lake trout was eaten and the bass released.
In the mid-Trail area Forrest Parsons of Hungry Jack Lodge reports that the bass are active right now. Walleyes are biting best in the evening hours. Teresa Baumann of Golden Eagle Lodge also had guests catching walleyes right off the dock during the evening hours. Forrest says that live bait have worked best for walleyes while suspended crank baits have been best for bass.
Andy Arendt from Tuscarora Outfitters has had several parties doing well with lake trout on the interior lakes of the BWCAW such as Tuscarora, Little Saganaga and Long Island. In these lakes the late trout are caught in 10-15 feet of water while trolling with a Sutton Spoon tipped with ciscos
Everyone along the Trail has been excited about the return of summer birds. Nor'Wester's eagle is back says Luana Brandt. Barbara Young at Boundary Country Trekking had guests from Illinois out on a guided birding walk. The guests added four birds (3 warblers and a flicker) to their life lists. Nancy Seaton of Hungry Jack Outfitters saw her first hummingbird for the year. Lots of partridge sightings are still being reported everywhre. A homeowner on Gunflint walked her side road and saw 17 partridge. But the bird sighting of the week goes to Bruce Kerfoot who saw a Baltimore Oriole at Gunflint's feeding station.
Finally, here's a reminder from Lin Sherfy at Rockwood Lodge to keep alert and drive carefully. Yesterday's wind blew a small tree across one lane of the Gunflint Trail near them. About 6:00 p.m. a car with a canoe on top came along that lane. There was another car coming in the opposite lane. Our first driver decided he couldn't stop so he hit the tree with his car. His aluminum canoe was swept right off the car. No one was hurt but the canoe.

Comments about Ad Lib AB 3107 BL Blue:
I have only had the product a day. I made sure they are transitional and seem to work fine. Other transitions used to stay dark in florescent lighting - thankfully these do not! Light weight and comfortable. I am only displeased that the color of the frames are not on the lighter side. The image shows more light blue/grey and a clear look to it. These are are lot more black with blue hints.

Hello Everyone, I am considering directly contacting end-users (cold contacting) that would be potentially interested in buying domains that I have for sale. What have been your experience with direct contacts? And what tips or advice would you give others based on your experience. Thank you, byallnames |

Don't offer direct names else its DRS city for thee. Stick to Generic offers

The trick is to find the person at the company most likely to understand domain names. If they already have a name registered, see if it's under a person's name and contact them. Or go with their marketing person, or maybe IT. Just e-mailing a "contact us" email is less likely to work. As the previous poster said, be careful you're not trying to sell "dollsAreUs.co.uk" to the owners of "BarbiesAreUs" or all you're going to get is a DRS.

One major factor I have found in shifting stuff is offering to put a simple 2-3 page website into the deal free (+30 for hosting, naturally thru an affiliate).

Foz, I totally agree with you where your asking 1000s, a domain worth mid-high XXX and above will indeed sell itself, but others made need a little push. However for up to earli-mid XXX (reg fee-250 say) names, to a company with no existing web face, is a huge market. Every time I goto the Chamber of Commerce breakfast club and all that jive (I'm bring that back, just heard it on Sudden Impact), small business understand the web is 24/7 and that a memorable name will be taken, and many understand that domain name are like car reg plates and only 1 can exist thus prices rocket. A fair few understand that they MUST have .com/.co.uk/.org.uk vs .tv/.net/.org and other CC/TLDs. There is definately a huge niche there for someone to tackle. Did anyone watch the Peter Jones thing last night ? Said he couldnt make the phones, and didnt wanna sell the phones, didnt want to run a network, so he realised a niche for getting the phone from A to B to C and made his 100,000,000 in 3 yrs doing that with Phone International, well this is a similar niche thats being ignored.

News Scott Stewart to Direct Film Version of Priest Manhwa
posted on 2008-12-18 02:05 EST
Scott Charles Stewart, a co-founder of the Orphanage special effects studio, has signed to be the director for Screen Gems' live-action film adaptation of Min-Woo Hyung's Priest manhwa. Priest tells the story of an expert in ancient languages who accidentally resurrects an angel from Hell, Temozareal. The man is forced to sell his soul to the Devil in a attempt to correct his mistake.
Tokyopop announced in 2001 that it had acquired the original Priest manhwa. Michael De Luca, Josh Donen, and Mitchell Peck are producing the live-action film version. Andrew Douglas was originally slated to direct the actors Gerard Butler and Steven Strait in the film, but that version never came together.

Acaricidal activities of whole cell suspension, cell-free supernatant, and crude cell extract of Xenorhabdus stokiae against mushroom mite (Luciaphorus sp.). | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 22467367 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
Xenorhabdus bacterium has been used as a biological control agent against Luciaphorus sp., a mushroom mite endemic in Thailand. To develop an effective formulation of Xenorhabdus stokiae, treatments using different parts of X. stokiae isolate PB09 culture, including whole cell suspension, cell-free supernatant, and crude cell extract, were performed. The results show that different parts of X. stokiae isolate PB09 culture could induce variable effects on mite mortality and fecundity. Application with cell-free supernatant of X. stokiae culture resulted in both the highest mite mortality rate [(89.00±3.60)%] and the lowest mite fecundity [(41.33±23.69) eggs/gravid female]. Whole cell suspension of X. stokiae isolate PB09 culture was found to be slightly less effective than its cell-free supernatant, suggesting that X. stokiae was more likely to release its metabolites with acaricidal activities to the surrounding culture media. Crude cell extract of X. stokiae was not effective against mites. Cell-free supernatant of X. stokiae isolate PB09 was the most effective biological control agent and it could be conveniently used in future formulations instead of live bacteria. |

By ELISE McKEOWN SKOLNICK
The school district's finances will be considerably stretched next school year, due in part to Gov. John Kasich's proposed budget, treasurer Richard Santilli told school board members.
The proposed budget calls for a 10.2 percent reduction in state-foundation support in fiscal year 2012, which begins July 1. But that's not all the district will lose, Santilli said at this week's board session.
The tangible personal property reimbursement, which all businesses paid on inventory, equipment and machinery, began being phased out a few years ago. The district will lose $703,637 in fiscal year 2012 because of it.
And, for the past nine years, the district has received public-utility deregulation reimbursement money. That's been phased out completely, at a loss of $126,653 for the fiscal year, Santilli said.
"The part that bothers me the most is when money was being doled out in good years, our increases were nil, but now when there's no money, our decreases are the heaviest," the treasurer added.
Boardman schools will see the biggest cut in state-foundation funding of all Mahoning County school districts, according to the Ohio Office of Budget and Management.
The district spends $8,740 per year to educate a student. That places them in the bottom 20 percent for spending per pupil, said Jim Massey, the district's director of operations. The district receives $1,499 per student in state foundation money.
"In other words, we do a pretty good job with the money that we have," he added.
Santilli notes the state budget isn't final.
"The numbers have changed in the past," he said. "But there's almost a $9 billion shortfall they have to try to fill."
The district would like to find ways to address the budget shortfalls without cutting teachers, said superintendent Frank Lazzeri.
"We're trying to come up with some creative ways to plug the budget gap," he added. "We'd rather not hurt students by cutting teachers, and we're exploring some other ways of doing it so as not to have a negative impact on kids."
Unlike Canfield, at least I don't see the Boardman folks whining--they appear to be seeking creative ways to fund the shortfalls.
I sincerely hope they find a way to manage the budget while maintaining the excellent system they have. It would be a shame for any of the kids, including my own, to lose out. Boardman schools are the best, and they do a great job.
Maybe cutting lose some of the "psychologists" roaming the halls, hoping for one of the kids to have a melt down, will save some of the cash. Maybe making the parents accountable for their prince and princesses tantrums will make the parents actually be parents instead of self-absorbed social butterflies...check each school for the number of periferal staff andtell me they aren't pissing a ton down the drain.

Time to Short the "Unsinkable" Stock: Apple
Technology stocks have always had trouble with the gap between promise and performance. One of my first gigs as a financial writer came about from this very problem.
I had just sold out of a sizable and involved entrepreneurial project, and was casting about for something to do when I was approached to do a bit of forensic research for a major newsletter group.
Seems their editors were writing up tech stocks like crazy, but none of them had ever actually run a business, and to be frank, a lot of those guys couldn't tell the difference between an ongoing concern and Red Bull vaporware sketched on the back of a burger-joint napkin.
My job was to see if there was any real grownup biz going on — you know, products, customers, sales, maybe even occasional profits! More often than not, it was just some pimple-faced college kids with a PC and a foosball table.
The Promise...
These days, the big promise is slates and cloud computing, which is all somehow completely different from last year's big noise about notebooks and net-based computing... or not.
According to the geeks at Gartner (NYSE: IT), worldwide spending on IT is supposed to skyrocket in the second half of 2011. We're talking growth of 7.1% net for the year, with computer hardware and enterprise software slated to lead the charge with 11.7% and 9.5% growth, respectively.
Better yet, cloud computing is supposed to advance at four times the rate of regular terrestrial computing.
Now I must confess that I've frequently been accused of "not getting" tech stuff. But when I dug deeper into Gartner's numbers, I couldn't help but notice that all that wonderful cloud stuff is only supposed to account for some 2% of total sales in 2011.
The Cloudy Question...
Now when you don't get something, you turn to an expert, right?
The problem is it's damned hard to understand most IT experts, who seem to speak some otherworldly language that consists entirely of acronyms.
That's why I just love technical analysis. At its very core, it allows you to poll a million experts on a given subject. Better yet, it completely discounts their crank talk and bloviating, focusing instead on where these guys are putting down green dollars.
And the Facts on the Ground
Check out the chart below of Standard & Poors' Technology Sector ETF (NYSE: XLK). It doesn't give a hoot about all that talk about clouds, slates etc...
click charts to enlarge |
Instead, it shows a clear set of stacked sell signals, including a double top at the top of trend, a broken 200-day moving average, and a reversal in the Money Flow oscillator.
A downside support test simply must follow a rejection like that.
Using a Fibonacci Retracement Grid based on the 2008-2011 run-up, we can posit:
- A highly probable drop to the F.-23.6% marker at XLK $23.87 (a 7.34% loss as I sit to write)
- A reasonable chance of a move to the F.-38.2% at XLK $21.70 (-15.5%)
- A possible plunge to F.-50% at XLK 20.01 for a loss of 22%
- Any major upside action is probably capped by the recent high at XLK $26.89 (+5.49%)
Quite frankly, it's that first drop that interests me the most right now, as it is so probable — what with five or more scenarios running to it or through it — and sizable enough to outweigh upside risk. And with the right leverage, it could generate substantial gains.
The Mark
I have on my desk an early report out of Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS) on Verizon (NYSE: VZ)'s second quarter sales of smartphones.
Let's not worry so much about how I got it, okay? Instead, let's focus on the rather intriguing disparity between sales of Droids (which are beating expectations) and Apple (NASDAQGS: AAPL)'s iPhones (which are slated to disappoint at just a tad below the 2.2 million mark).
This falloff intrigues because unlike the cloud and all that crap, iPhones now represent some half of Apple's revenue these days. Seriously, this line of gadgets is pretty much the difference between Apple as a small boutique seller of pretty PCs and Apple as the tech behemoth.
If the market for iThis, iThat, and iThe-Other-Thing is finally showing signs of saturation, then Apple could be in line for quite a tumble.
And then there's that whole "Steve Jobs is dying of cancer" thing. But we don't even need that sort of super-dramatic issue to make some coin from a moderate drop.
Looking to the AAPL chart, we see a similar set of stacked sell signals — including a rounding top, a breach of the 200-day average, and a money flow reversal.
Once again, we have at least three downside scenarios that all move to or through the F.-23.6% node at $310.54, which would make for a 7.34% loss from current price.
I recommend you purchase Apple September 335.00 Puts (AAPL1117U335), trading for $10.20 as I sit to write with a posted Delta of 0.3158, and Open Interest of some 1,446 contracts.
Our "Highly Probable" downside target is sufficient to move these puts to $22.35 for gains in excess of 119%.
A Warning
I should mention one brief caveat: One of my very first investigations for that other newsletter company was of a rapidly growing online commerce outfit.
When I dug into the situation, I discovered they were being investigated by a state district attorney for funneling automatic weapons to street thugs. Needless to say, I recommended shorting the bejeezus out of them!
The name of this sorry little outfit was eBay (NASDAQ: EBAY). CEO Meg Whitman basically told the prosecutor she was sorry and wouldn't do it again. And shares went on to double — about ten times over!
So yeah, sometimes I really just don't get tech stocks. (But this time, I think I really do.)
Good luck and good hunting,

Three Dimensional Fast Exact Euclidean Distance (3D-FEED) Maps
Schouten, Theo E. and Kuppens, Harco C. and Broek, Egon L. van den (2006) Three Dimensional Fast Exact Euclidean Distance (3D-FEED) Maps. In: Vision geometry XIV, 17-18 January 2006, San Jose, California, USA .
Restricted to UT campus only : Request a copy 450kB |
Abstract: | In image and video analysis, distance maps are frequently used. They provide the (Euclidean) distance (ED) of background pixels to the nearest object pixel. Recently, the Fast Exact Euclidean Distance (FEED) transformation was launched. In this paper, we present the three dimensional (3D) version of FEED. 3D-FEED is compared with four other methods for a wide range of 3D test images. 3D-FEED proved to be twice as fast as the fastest algorithm available. Moreover, it provides true exact EDs, where other algorithms only approximate the ED. This unique algorithm makes the difference, especially there where time and precision are of importance. |

Gustav's crown continued for some years to be precarious. Christian II had been driven out of Denmark by his uncle, who succeeded him as Frederick I, and a common fear of Christian's restoration soon drew Frederick and Gustav together, so that despite recurrent periods of tension the threat from Christian, and afterward from his heirs, enforced a measure of harmony between Sweden and Denmark. But Gustav had to face serious internal dangers: from aggrieved members of the old Sture party who resented his favour to some of their former enemies; from the men of Dalarna, who added to this grievance complaints on economic and religious grounds; and from great nobles, who found Gustav a more formidable ruler than they had expected. Indeed, Gustav proved to be a harsh master and an exigent lord; he became known for being suspicious, mendacious, cruel, vengeful, demagogic, and capricious; and, to his enemies, he seemed to have most of the attributes of a tyrant.
The need to pay his debts to Lübeck and to strengthen the royal authority forced Gustav to impose heavy taxes, and it was essentially with a view to tapping the Roman Catholic church's wealth that he embarked on the measures that led to the Reformation in Sweden. The Diet at Västerås in 1527 put the church's property at his mercy. Gustav had few theological interests or preferences, but he resented the presence in Sweden of any authority that challenged his own, and he had some sympathy with the idea of religious services in Swedish, for he was an indifferent Latinist himself. The move toward Lutheranism, however, was both accelerated and retarded by purely political considerations. Sweden did not become irrevocably a Lutheran country until 1544 at the earliest, and it was a long time before Protestantism was popular outside Stockholm.
The last great revolt of the reign, in 1542–43, had a strong anti-Protestant strain. Gustav's vain attempts to become a member of the Schmalkaldic League, formed by the German Protestants, were dictated by a desire to provide himself with allies rather than by religious convictions. In foreign policy, indeed, he inclined always to caution and a husbanding of resources. If he intervened in the so-called Count's War between pretenders to the Danish crown (1534–36), it was because he saw at last a chance of liberating Sweden from Lübeck's tutelage, and his only other adventure was the later war with Muscovy (1555–57).
Gustav's greatest achievement was the creation of a strong monarchy. He based his power on a massive agglomeration of crown and family lands, acquired for the most part by confiscation from the church, which put him beyond the rivalry of any other noble house. The supervision and exploitation of these lands was his personal concern, and with it went an infinite solicitude for the least detail of fiscal policy. In the 1540s, owing to a lack of trained Swedes, he imported German administrators. This was a brief episode, but their work had a lasting effect in Sweden. It enabled Gustav to maintain his personal supervision and to combine it with high efficiency.
As the political heir of a faction, he found it expedient to bribe his nobility with church lands, and he was successful in many policies that the Stures had only attempted. In 1544, for instance, he induced the Diet to declare the monarchy hereditary rather than elective. He summoned the estates frequently in the uncertain years at the beginning of his reign, though less often thereafter, and his use of them to endorse his policies undoubtedly aided their development as an effective parliamentary body. On the other hand, he reduced to a position of relative insignificance the aristocratic council of state, which had played the leading part in the constitutional struggles of the preceding century.
Gustav was a harsh sovereign whose suspiciousness, irritability, and violence drove a succession of faithful servants into embittered exile. Nevertheless he was one of the great rulers of his age, being both shrewd and tireless in his concern for his country. He made Sweden an independent state and gave his country, for the first time in a century, nearly 40 years of stable and intelligent government. He ensured the triumph of Lutheranism, established the first truly national standing army of modern times, and founded the Swedish navy. With his first wife, Catherine of Saxe-Lauenberg, he had one son, who succeeded him as Erik XIV.

THURSDAY, May 8, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Scientists have developed a device that, when implanted in rats, lowers their blood pressure by sending electrical signals to the brain.
The surgically implanted device reduced blood pressure in the animals by 40 percent and did not cause any major side effects, according to a study published May 9 in the Journal of Neural Engineering.
The creators of the device said it could one day offer a new option for people with high blood pressure who do not respond to existing treatments.
The device is a cuff that wraps around the vagal nerve, which extends from the brainstem to the thorax and abdomen. The nerve stimulates major blood vessels, the heart and other organs. The device affects only vagal nerve fibers that influence blood pressure, the researchers noted in a news release from the Institute of Physics.
In rats, the device lowered blood pressure but did not affect heart or breathing rate, according to the researchers at the University of Freiburg in Germany.
"As the device will require surgery, it is not intended to be the first port of call for treatment and will come into play when patients, for whatever reasons, are resistant to medication," study lead author Dennis Plachta said in the news release.
"Nevertheless, the long-term goal is to provide 'treatment-on-demand' for the patient, whereby the implantable device uses an intelligent circuit to record the activity of the patient, for instance when they are doing exercise, and adjust the blood pressure accordingly," he explained.
"We will now look to develop the implantable device further and investigate whether it interferes with existing medication, and ultimately test it on larger animals such as pigs and sheep," Plachta added.
Research carried out on animals often fails to produce similar results in humans.

Abstract | Sustainable land use is critical for the development of the Philippines uplands, where about 18 million people live. This paper relates our experiences using a participatory approach to develop agroforestry practices and institutions for conservation farming that ensure food security, alleviate poverty and protect the environment in Claveria, Northern Mindanao, Philippines. We found that natural vegetative strips provide a simple solution to the technical constraints of soil conservation on slopes. These are buffer strips, laid out on the contour, in which natural vegetation is allowed to regrow into a thick, protective cover. The strips also provide a foundation for developing more complex agroforestry systems including fodder, fruit and timber trees. The tremendous surge in adoption of these systems has been enhanced by the Landcare approach. Landcare is a movement of farmer-led organizations that share knowledge about sustainable and profitable agriculture on the sloping lands while conserving the natural resources. The Landcare movement is spreading rapidly to many municipalities in Mindanao and Visayan islands. |

Not a pleasant experience. Will not recommend.
Made reservation online with cc. Upon arrival, receptionist had no idea what to do & made my family wait 45 minutes until we were given a room. The 1st room was not ready so another room was arranged. The 2nd room was freezing cold & we could not sleep.
In-room fridge and microwave.
Advertised having a fitness facility, but did not actually still have one. Was told that the exercise room had been recently closed. Thermostat in room did not work properly.
Friendly staff, clean facilities, excellent housekeeping, great cable TV!
Attentive staff. Clean rooms. Good coffee.
Mattresses are nearing end of life expectancy.
Close to highway
Grounds could be cleaned up and made a little more attractive. Room could be cleaned a little better.
bed comfortable and room quite adequate
price -- could have stayed in Lewisburg for $20 less.
Every employee was great and very friendly. We received food coupons for breakfast worth almost $8 each for both mornings. The diner was right next door so you didn't have to go far to eat. The room was very comfortable.
Everything was fine. I was surprised that our room did not get serviced for the second night that we were there. I don't know if it was just an oversight on just our room or if that is their standard procedure.
Bathroom was filthy, mold on ceiling, floor was obviously dirty, door didn't close fully, worse mattress I've ever sat on, we left after 20 mins and found another hotel, do not stay here
Beautiful setting, beautiful hotel with rich history, and staff that seem proud to serve the guests in this resort.
A bit pricey for extras.
Here's why:
We're not the seller At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time? Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.
More questions or if you have a bad price to report to us Please send us an email and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.

Although few exoplanets have been detected using this technique, it's finding worlds that challenge planetary formation models.
As we detect more exoplanets, astronomers are realizing standard planetary formation models cannot account for many of them.
The use of microlensing -- where the gravity of a planetary body bends the light of its host star -- can highlight the presence of small worlds.
The importance of microlensing as an exoplanet-hunting tool is slowly being realized.
In exoplanet hunting today, there seems to be one burning question that nearly every new article published asks: Where did these planets come from?
As astronomers discovered the first extrasolar planets, it quickly became obvious that the formation theories we'd built around our own solar system were only part of the story.
For starters, these theories didn't predict the vast number of "hot Jupiters" astronomers were finding throughout our galaxy.
Astronomers went back to the drawing board to put more details into the theory, breaking formation down into quick, single collapses and more gradual accretion of gas disks, and worrying about the effects of orbital migration.
It's likely all these formation effects take place to some extent, but ferreting out just how much is now the big challenge for astronomers.
Hampering their efforts is the biased sample from the gravitational-wobble detection technique that preferentially discovers high mass, tightly orbiting exoplanets.
The addition of the Kepler space telescope to the planet hunter's arsenal has removed some of this bias, finding planets of far lower masses, but still prefers planets in short orbits where they are more likely to transit.
However, the addition of another technique, gravitational microlensing, promises to find worlds down to 10 Earth masses, much further out from their parent stars. Using this technique, a team of astronomers has just announced the detection of a rocky planet in this range.
Gravitational microlensing works by a planetary body -- or any body for that matter with significant mass, such as a brown dwarf or even a black hole -- passing in front of a star. As it does so, its gravity bends the starlight around itself, focusing the light for an observer on Earth. The body is then detected by monitoring transient brightenings of distant stars.
According to the Extrasolar Planet Encyclopaedia, astronomers have discovered 13 planets using gravitational microlensing. The newly announced one, MOA-2009-BLG-266Lb, is estimated to be just over 10 times the mass of Earth and orbits at a distance of 3.2 AU around its parent star with roughly half the mass of the sun.
This new finding is important because it's one of the first exoplanets in this mass range that lies beyond the "snow line" -- the distance during formation of a planetary system beyond which ice can form from water, ammonia, and methane.
The presence of icy grains is expected to assist in the formation of planets since it creates additional, solid material to form the planetary core. Just beyond the snow line, astronomers would expect that planets would form the most quickly since, as you move beyond this line, the density of planet-making material drops.
Models have predicted that planets forming here should quickly reach a mass of 10 Earth masses by accumulating most of the solid material in the vicinity. The forming planet can then slowly accrete gaseous envelopes. If it accumulates this material quickly enough, the gaseous atmosphere may become too massive and collapse, beginning a rapid gas accretion phase forming a gas giant.
The timing of these three phases, as well as their distance dependency, makes testable predictions that can be contrasted with the observations as astronomers discover more planets in this vicinity.
In particular, it has suggested that we should see few gas giants around low mass stars because the gas disk is expected to dissipate before the atmosphere collapse leading to a rapid accretion phase. This expectation has been generally supported by the findings of the 500+ confirmed extrasolar planets, as well as the 1,200+ candidates from Kepler, lending credence to this core collapse and slow accretion model.
Additionally, Kepler has also reported a large population of relatively low mass planets, inside the snow line. This too supports this hypothesis since the greater difficulty in forming cores without the presence of ice would hamper the formation of large planets. However, other predictions, such as not expecting massive planets in tight orbits, is still largely contradictory to the hypothesis and greater testing with additional discoveries will be needed.
Assisting with this, several new observing programs will be coming on line in the near future. The Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment IV (OGLE-IV) has just entered operation and a new program at Wise Observatory in Tel Aviv will begin operation following up on microlensing events next year.
Also expected in the near future is the Korean Microlensing Network (KMT-Net) that will operate telescopes in South Africa, Chile, and Australia using 1.6 meter telescopes covering 4 square degrees of the galactic bulge.

The Honda Crosstour has been something of an automotive whatcha-ma-call-it. Buyers have found it hard to identify what the high-riding wagon is all about, and so have we. Honda even started out by calling it the Accord Crosstour, and then changed its name to help give it more of its own identity. But with other popular crossovers already in Honda's stables, trying to carve out a niche for the Crosstour has been no easy task.

Thanks Ross - I'll chill!
Has anyone received a Good For Age application form yet for next years London Marathon?

i wish they would play Sword Chant but i have never seen it on any setlist. |
Here are some our pics from ENSIFERUM concert in Moscow 19 th of March

Wow that's an awesome setlist.
would have been neat to see heathen throne on the set
No The Wanderer...
They could've easily replaced Deathbringer and Into Battle with Hero In A Dream and Little Dreamer..but still they can play whatever they want and it's still awesome. Love this band.
They were probably on a Victory Song trip this night. Nice to see Blood Is The Price Of Glory, but I could live without The New Dawn. Into Battle is a really nice addition, but I miss little dreamer.
Refreshing set though. |

Pretty good made just as the recipe says, but there are a couple of changes I may try next time. For starters there are A LOT of noodles. I would cut them down to 16 oz. instead of 24. I also added 2c. more cheese because someone else said it was more macaroni and tomatoes than mac n cheese. I'm glad I did because it was better cheesier. I also browned the beef with a little pepper and garlic salt for flavor. I think maybe next time I will use a little less juice (since I will use less macaroni), 6c. not 4 of cheese, and also add some italian seasoning. Maybe using v8 or spicy v8 instead would also kick it up a notch? Anyway, I liked it and it's a good versatile recipe you can play with or use as is. My toddler loved it and ate like a piggy!
My daughter and husband really liked this dish. Like the others before me, I too made some modifications since I thought 2 boxes of pasta would be way too much. I used one box of tri-colored rotini, a bag of Soy crumbles (made it vegetarian!), one 16 oz bag of shredded sharp cheddar cheese, a 14oz can of diced Fire Roasted tomatoes, diced onion and green pepper, shredded zucchini, carrot, and mushroom, and half of a 16 oz bottle of regular V-8. My husband liked it so much he wants it again this week, but with 'real' meat in it this time! :)
This recipe is simply fantastic. I was looking for an easy Friday night meal for my family and came across this one. I have three teenage boys and they loved this. It has become a weekly staple. I added a little more ground beef for my boys the second time we tried. GREAT!!
